Topic:
 A new type of average speed camera is being rolled out for trials on roads surrounding a school in Dorset.
The new SafeZone cameras, manufactured by Siemens, measure the average speed of vehicles travelling between two camera sites and are being trialled with the support of Borough of Poole council, Dorset County Council, the Dorset Safety Camera Partnership and Springdale First School.
The cameras cannot be used for enforcement as they do not (yet) have Home Office approval but this is the first use of such technology to enforce speed limits in a school zone.
Will the use of Average speed cameras technology for such purposes meet with greater approval by road users? Read the full press release here.
